Thanks Rick and Richard.
Have limited access to internet at the moment, glad to hear of another success.
On a positive note I did get to catch up with a few collage friends most of them I hadn't seen for forty years.

That's good, now you can keep up with the news, only problem is it distracts you from other tasks....

cheers Richard

Vicki and I are looking forward to a completely new view in September 2019. We are booked on a 19 day tour in Canada, we plan to stay on and do a bit of driving when the rest of the tour flies home. Just looked at a map of Canada and it is going to take quite a bit of driving to see what is on our list. Looking forward to the challenges.

Back to square one with our new house, the builder went bust, so we are now getting quotes to build the same or very similar plan.

Sorry to hear about your builder - how disappointing!

I hope your tour of Canada will consist of going from blitz owner to blitz owner. They're a great bunch of folk there.

No grants for me Rick, I have already owned three houses even though I never bought any.
Yes Keith that is the plan once the initial tour is finished and the others fly home.

One more meeting with G J Gardner on Monday then the plans can go to council.
My new toy has finally arrived, 12 weeks late, so I can change the view myself now.
